Marine Facilities Environmental and Regulatory Liabilities

 

Marine Facilities Environmental and Regulatory Liabilities 

 

Marine terminal facilities face a spectrum of environmental and regulatory exposures that  necessitates meticulous attention. Addressing these challenges is paramount for maintaining  compliance and minimizing risk. Among the most prevalent issues are:
Improperly Managed Underground Storage Tanks Ensuring the proper management of underground  storage tanks and associated pipes is essential to  prevent environmental hazards. It’s crucial to note that  Underground Storage Tank Age Triggers may result in  coverage changes, driven by federal regulations in the  early to mid-1980s that mandated tank removal and  replacement for stricter leak prevention and detection rules. 
Abandoned Underground Tanks Identifying and addressing underground tanks that have  been removed or abandoned for unknown reasons is  critical to avoid potential liabilities. 
Aboveground Storage Tank Inspections Regular testing and inspection of aboveground storage  tanks are necessary to detect and prevent leakage through  the bottom, especially when placed on soil. 
Secondary Containment at Liquid Storage Tanks Ensuring proper secondary containment at bulk aboveground liquid storage tanks and piers during fuel  coupling points is vital for spill prevention. 
Integrity Testing of Fuel Transfer Pipelines Regular integrity testing of fuel transfer pipelines is essential to maintain a secure and reliable fuel  transfer process. 
Support Structures for Pipelines Ensuring robust pipeline support structures over  surface waters prevents structural failures and potential  environmental damage. 
Fuel Spillage During Loading Operations Addressing sudden and chronic fuel spillage during  land-to-marine vessel loading operations is crucial for  environmental protection. 
Large Quantity Fuel Spills from Barge Unloading Implementing measures to prevent large quantity fuel spills  during the unloading of barges to land storage facilities is key. 
Emergency Response Equipment and Plans Having sufficient emergency response equipment and well defined plans for addressing fuel spills to surface waters is  essential for effective crisis management. 
Compliance with Combustion Emission Standards Ensuring compliance with emission standards from fuel-burning marine vessels helps reduce environmental impact. 
Proper Bilge Water Purging Proper procedures for purging bilge waters from marine  vessels are essential to prevent pollution. 
Asbestos and PCB Management Managing asbestos insulation around marinas and  addressing PCB-containing electrical equipment associated  with marinas are crucial steps in environmental risk reduction. 
Effective Housekeeping Practices Maintaining high standards of housekeeping practices helps  create a clean and safe environment, thereby reducing the  risk of environmental incidents. 
Site Pollution Policy Tank exposures can typically be underwritten into a site  pollution policy—a comprehensive program addressing site wide pollution exposures—at a cost that can be relatively  competitive annually within a three-year program term. 

Vessel Pollution Liability This comprehensive coverage is designed to protect your  business in the event or threat of a spill,   tailored for vessels,  shipyards, or marinas. It covers OPA, Non-OPA, Fines and  Penalties, State Fines and Penalties, ERCLA, and  Non-CERCLA.

Green Hydrogen for Ports Marine Craft & Trucks

 

Production and Delivery of Green Hydrogen

For Ports Marine Craft and Trucks

 Clean Green Hydrogen hydrogen is the universe’s oldest, most abundant element; It is found in molecules like H20, where it is one of the basic ingredients, is extracted through electrolysis and stored as electrical energy. When combined with oxygen in a fuel cell, a flow of electrons is created, resulting in electricity used for multiple applications, including powering fuel cells, storage and used as renewable energy.

Clean Power Generation Fuel Cell Engines FCEs produce electricity without burning fuel, hence zero emissions with water as the primary byproduct. Fuel Cell stacks combine to form power modules, each comprising multiple stacks that efficiently generate electricity from the chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen.
Sustainable Energy with Scalable Power a modular fuel cell technology that delivers consistent power that lasts throughout your duty-cycle.
Fuel Cell Engines power modules, along with balance-of-plant (BOP) components are integrated into a fuel cell engine. The BOP includes systems such as air and hydrogen supply, cooling, and control units, ensuring optimal conditions for the fuel cell stacks.This collaborative integration results in a compact and robust fuel cell engine capable of converting hydrogen into electricity with high  efficiency and reliability.
Refueling Stations for Hydrogen-Powered Ports Trucks and Ships
A Modular Hydrogen Platform is a scalable, skid mounted, electrolyzer system and ready-to-install; an industrial scale electrolyzer system based on proton exchange membrane (PEM) technology using renewable energy to power the process.

Transit Logistics

Intercity and Local Mobility Services

Transit Logistics are intercity and local door-to-door mobility services designed to connect air and rail service in large cities with micropolitan areas to benefit:
vacationers who can maximize sightseeing time and reduce accommodation costs,
business travelers visiting multiple locations in a compressed time frame, long-distance commuters.
Objectives connect major air and rail metro hubs with micropolitan communities via intercity multimodal and local Micro Transit hub and spoke services to leverage travel client relationships and engage local product and service providers.
Customer Centered and Sustainable Transit Solutions
Community based entities designed to deliver services across the spectrum of transit modes and providers, including public transit, private operators, planners, and stakeholders to benefit local and regional customers.
The Logistics of Travel are defined as anchoring stays in strategic locations along planned trip routes conveniently located to points of interest and minimizing the number of accommodation changes; hence, fewer times packing and unpacking, lowering accommodations and transport costs in:
Hub and Spoke locations are smaller towns and rural communities with regional rail, bus, van, car and air connections strategically located within 200 or less miles of larger metropolitan areas.
Sightseeing, meals, and other planned events in a hub and spoke fashion, saving time and money, but also an opportunity to slow down and enjoy places and people.
Mode of Transport selections are a function of number of persons, trip length as well as the time of year you are traveling. Rationalizing travel movements, ascertaining transport mode(s) availability and costs are the key to a successful trip planning.
